Live an Inspired Life and Flourish! The goal of this show is to help you not only raise healthy & happy children, but to also work on your own personal development. We are all born with a Gift. We are all born with Purpose. Life‘s journey is to hone and develop that Gift, as purpose changes within. Share your knowledge of self-empowerment with those you influence, after all it‘s easier to raise a child with a positive mindset than it is to fix a broken one. How you speak and how you act around your children becomes their inner voice.

Inspiration comes from within and what inspires one person will be different from others. Look around you, inspiration is everywhere. In Nature, in Family and most of all in Children. What inspires you? What gets you out of bed every morning that you're excited for? What excites you and enlivens your spirit? Most of all, when does that almighty SPARK get lit up?
Today I share inspiration in a few different ways along with a few quotes. Inspiration is not reserved for artists who paint or draw, but is within all of us.
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artists once he grows up." Picasso
What Picasso meant by that is you are never too young or too old to be inspired and bring joy to yourself and your surroundings and do what you love.
Einstein did and spoke on inspiration "I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination."
Live life inspired and the day that turns your life around will be imminent.
"Promise yourself you will never give up." Jim Rohn
The inspirational spark for me: "The harder you try. The harder you fail. The Better you will Become." Diane Planidin

The Power of Positive thinking and Determination are alive and well in the fable Hansel and Gretel.
Whether your baking Gingerbread to build a house or your putting together a Lego creation, a solid foundation is always in need.
We all have a super power within us. Will power.
"Strength is the outcome of Need" H.G. Wells
Be very deliberate on minding your words, and think hard on what NOT to say.
Share your knowledge and the fundamentals will remain tried and true.
Patience, reassurance, attention and time are so valuable. Listen and hear what your child is trying to tell you.
Just let them be a child.
FOMO - Fear of Missing out, should not be a 'thing.'
Lego and Gingerbread have a lot in common. Both have unlimited constructive potential, hands-on work and three dimensional thinking.
Believe in a future with all your heart
Ghandi: Keep your thoughts positive, because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive, because your words become your behaviour. Keep your behaviour positive, because your behaviour becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive, because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive, because your values become your destiny.
Live Well. https://www.Flourish.Mom

Math is Magical and Learning is Fun. It should also be entertaining and inspiring to all of us.
Take the stress out of test taking and timing and enjoy the magic of the only Universal language in the world. It doesn't matter where in the world you live, math is communicated the same way.
"A lot of scientific evidence suggests that the difference between those who succeed and those who don't is not the brains they were born with, but their approach to life, the messages they receive about their potential, and the opportunities they have to learn" Jo Boaler
When it comes to math, you can have your Pi, and eat it too :)
Opportunities in learning, take the stress out of math and exam taking by realizing your natural talent.
"Mathematics is the cradle of all creations"
The bee is the most wondrous of species, creating hexagons to store their bounty.
"Let us realize and appreciate the beauty of the subject of math and embrace it with all our heart"
Darwin: "It's not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."
"Mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas." Einstein

Pitch Perfect is a musical talent that only the lucky few are born with. Think Mozart, Chopin and Beethoven. Mariah Carey, Ella Fitzgerald and Michael Jackson. Natural talent!
Music is so important to us all, for various reasons. It defines culture, taste and yes even motivation. I have my favourite jam to get me moving at the gym but I also have a favourite jam for chillin and entertaining.
I love this quote: "Please go for your dreams. Whatever you Ideals, you can become whatever you want to become." Michael Jackson
Since we are all originals, life's journey is to make those great discoveries. When you do, practice on purpose.
Einstein loved the violin so much that he had 10 of them, each called 'Lina', what an interesting term of endearment. He said playing a musical instrument helped him think and process scientific information.
Music takes many shapes, and the score from the World of Warcraft was a definite favourite. Give it a listen, you won't be disappointed.
"Good better best, never let it rest; until your good is better and your better is best." Saint Jerome.

Cooking and Baking are perfect to teach your child FUNdamentals.
We created our own imaginary cooking show in our kitchen to inspire fun in the kitchen, all while learning the basic skills needed to cook. How cooking and enjoying the fruits of your labor is fun and rewarding.
Food always tastes better when it looks nice on a plate. Remember to garnish and add a splash of colour. Get creative and make your pancakes into shapes, or just pretend they are flying saucers. Once you've mastered the art of cooking with your children you will love doing bigger projects and making grocery shopping a great adventure.
Smell everything, and your senses will come to life, not to mention build a great memory. That's the Proust effect. For us, we now have cooking and baking traditions, something to look forward to, an experience that doesn't cost any more than the food you were going to eat anyways.
"You don't need a silver fork to eat good food." Paul Prudhomme.
